Bookroo's summary

Mr. Rally and his dog, Lightning, embark on a day of digging across town. With five crucial tasks, including building a school pool and a rain drain, they must race against time. Will their trusty yellow backhoe be enough to complete the jobs? Join their rhythmic journey and discover if they can dig through the challenges that await.

From the publisher

Dig up rock and dig up clay! Dig up dirt and dig all day! Mr. Rally and his faithful dog, Lightning, have a busy day ahead of them, but they don’t mind. What could be more fun than using a big yellow backhoe to build a pool at the school and a drain for the rain? Follow Mr. Rally through his day as he travels around town, counting from one to five in an irresistible refrain. Marc Rosenthal’s colorful, nostalgic illustrations add a bold dimension to the lively text by the husband-and-wife team of Andrea Zimmerman and David Clemesha. Dig on, Mr. Rally! Dig on, Lightning!
